Review by Jolita

"Wolfgang is extremely knowledgeable and intelligent. He has an effective teaching style and will happily clarify questions along the way. He has done a gr

eat job assessing my current ability and guiding me forward towards accurate application of the German language. He is reliable and offers praise and encouragement consistently. I have truly enjoyed my German lessons with Wolfgang and appreciate his warmth, patience and expertise!"

"Wolfgang is a wonderful, tutor, teacher and mentor. For quite awhile I have wanted to learn to speak German. Wolfgang has and continues to guide me toward

my goal.

Wolfgang is very patient, flexible and understanding. He has adapted his lessons to best fit my way of learning. This is no simple task in itself. But Wolfgang has found a method of teaching that goes well beyond words and phrases. It strengthens my understanding of the culture. This is critical to successfully comprehending any language.

Wolfgang is a true Linguist. His expertise is far-reaching, not just in syntax or morphology, but in the history from which the language is born. This knowledge is indispensable and cannot be found elsewhere."

Review by Cassie

"Valentina was extremely patient as my Italian was sitting at a kindergarten level of that! However once she walked me through the basics of grammar, used

her real world examples, and basically gave me an insight into average day Italian I was able to make the connections to start getting it. Her English is excellent and the extent of her linguistic knowledge was such that she made translating, studying, and practicing very engaging and encouraging. She is a very engaging, personable, and motivated teacher and I more than appreciated her efforts in helping me prepare for my Italian tests for work. Grazie Mille Valentina!"

About Erika H.

About Erika

Hola amigos!

My name is Erika Hoffman Garcia and I would love to teach you Spanish! I am the daughter of a German- American father and Panamanian mother. I am 100% bilingual in both English and Spanish. I grew up mostly in Latin America living in Costa Rica, Chile, Panama amongst visiting countries such as Peru, Dominican Republic, Argentina, Nicaragua, and Spain. If you want help on your Spanish homework, need someone to quiz you, converse with you etc. or need assistance in reading, writing and speaking the language I'm here to help! I make learning fun and more than anything I teach it in an applicable way so that you can use it as an every day language and not as just a way to pass a class. I have a Bachelors of Arts in Theatre Arts from Loyola Marymount University so if you want to include Spanish Soap Operas into the mix we can

definitely do that! Cheers to learning a new language!

Alex Aldana June 17, 2016·Acoustic Guitar·

Max is very knowledgable about music and it's theories. However, he also understands where his students are and what they need. He made lessons in guitar applicable at my level. He is very patient and works well with kids. You can tell he genuinely cares for people and wants them to improve!

Kevin Mizuta June 16, 2016·Bass Guitar·

Max is a great bass guitar teacher. You can tell that he has a deep fundamental understanding of music and he presents lessons very clearly and at a manageable pace. My bass playing, music theory, and music appreciation have improved dramatically under his instruction.

About Veronica H.

About Veronica

Teaching language is a passion, not only a profession. When you teach language you have to engage students in the culture, to spark motivation and broaden horizons, to promote diversity and tolerance. My bachelors is in Psychology from my country of origin, but coming to this country I began working in language when looking for bilingual opportunities for my own children. Not being able to find the right person I decided to study so I could provide the best learning experience to my own children and that became my new career more than fifteen years now. I have traveled through Latin America and gained cultural and academic knowledge. I have owned a language program for ten years and trained and supervised hundreds of language teachers and enjoyed thousands of young and old students' language accomplishments. I have also had the hon

or and the privilege of teaching language to the military for almost eight years, developing curriculum for all levels and all ages.Every student is a new opportunity to inspire and improve a life. I look forward to that every day.

Mrs. Hernandez is an amazing instructor. Her one-on-one classes are catered to the specific needs of the student as an individual. I like the use of multimedia because it accommodates to different learning styles. Her charismatic approach makes the student feel confident and encouraged to participate and fully engage in class.

William November 4, 2017·Spanish·In studio

I studied Spanish with Mrs. Hernandez for a year and a half. You won't find a better Spanish instructor anywhere. She uses a wide variety of teaching strategies and media to keep the classes interesting and to get the most out of the time in class.

I was born in Mexico and I moved to the States almost ten years ago, I have a BA degree in language teaching and Master degree in Romance language and literature. I have been teaching at three different universities, face to face class and online. As a Spanish instructor in both platform I have had the opportunity to look for different ways to teach the language and see the students being able to produce and understand the language. Culture is also a very important part of the learning process, if you learn a language from specific countries in this case, Spanish speaking countries you need to be able to learn about their culture, traditions, music, food, way of living , etc. So you will have a complete knowledge
